All,
our project is a large and complex convention center remodel/expansion. We are proposing a metering strategy that is tailored to the way the building will be operated. The Metering Concept Narrative is over 20 pages long.
Our challenge - we would like to submit a CIR to use the alternative compliance described in our Narrative. The vehicle that is available to us for submitting LEED CIRs limits us to a 5,000 characters box.
We have approached GBCI about this, but got the stock reply of "how to submit for a CIR" which leads us back to the 5,000 character box.
Any suggestions?
(For some reason my earlier post about this issue has disappeared from this Forum.)

I think you just need to summarize the alternative compliance. A CIR is not intended to include a review of the project's documentation. A 20 page metering concept document is just too long to expect it to be a CIR. Summarize the approach and how it complies with the requirements of the IPMVP.
